Are You Ready for The 2nd Leg Higher in the TSX Venture in 2018?

Are You Ready for The 2nd Leg Higher in the TSX Venture in 2018?
Looking at the TSX Venture Chart above it appears the Venture peaked in 2011 and bottomed in 2016. Since the summer of 2016 the Venture has consolidated that first move for over 18 months. It appears that we could be starting the next leg higher with this break of 850. We are also moving into a very favorable time period where rallies occur between January and March. If you want to take advantage of a new year tax loss bounce you should buy a handful of really quality juniors which are still cheap.

I highlighted for close to a year now that maybe Argentina was getting a bit overpriced and we should look at Chile for the critical lithium supplies. Over the weekend the runoff election was announced and my forecast of Chile turning pro business was spot on.

Uranium Market Bottoming Five Years After Fukushima as World Heats Up From Carbon Emissions

Uranium Market Bottoming Five Years After Fukushima as World Heats Up From Carbon Emissions
We should invest in this forgotten sector when it is dirt cheap and in the midst of a bust as the long term forecast for nuclear is very strong. Climate change and global warming concerns will not go away and I believe America will continue to build and update its nuclear fleet over the next 5-10 years.

The next nuclear renaissance will be with next generation small modular reactors in the battle to fight climate change.

The recent deal between Canada's Cameco and India could be the catalyst as highlighted in my previous article.
